GETTING READY
• If the battery does not achieve full charge after the
normal charging time has passed, stop charging. Con-
tinued charging creates the risk of overheating, fire,
and explosion.
• Battery fluid accidentally getting into your eyes can
damage your eyes. Immediately rinse your eyes with
clean tap water and then consult a physician.
• Be sure to read the User's Guide that comes with the
camera and special charger unit before using or
charging the battery.
• If the battery is to be used by young children, make
sure that a responsible adult makes them aware of the
precautions and proper handling instructions as con-
tained in the User's Guide, and make sure that they
handle the battery correctly.
• Should fluid from the battery accidentally get onto
clothing or your skin, immediately rinse it off with clean
tap water. Prolonged contact with battery fluid can
cause skin irritation.
" PRECAUTIONS DURING USE
• This battery is designed for use with a CASIO digital
camera only. See your camera's Users Guide to find
out if it supports use of this battery.
• Use only the special charger unit to charge the bat-
tery. Never use any other type of charger unit for
charging.
• This battery initially not charged. Be sure to charge
the battery before using it for the first time.
• Use of a battery in cold environments shortens the
operating time you can expect on a full charge.
• Charge the battery in a location where the tempera-
ture is in the range of 10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F).
Charging outside this temperature range can cause
charging to take longer than normal or even cause
charging to fail.
• Very limited operation following a fully charge indi-
cates that the battery has reached the end of its ser-
vice life. Replace the battery with a new one.
